Okay so welcome back guys and today we will be going into a custom server on Nintendo switch so I personally use mine Fort and um you can too okay so here’s how to do it so you will have to close your game click this click system settings go over to Internet click internet settings and then click your house for for me I put I named it home and then you come over to DNS settings and make it these and then all all you have to do here is do 8.8.8.8 so yeah do these and pause the video if you need to Continue okay so once you have done that click connect to network when it says con successfully connected you can get off go back into Minecraft um I’m going into my account obviously and then you will wait for it to load in and this is Nintendo switch but I Pictured it perfectly to where it looks full screen see Nintendo account or it said Nintendo account and I bet from the way the home screen looks it was a Nintendo but let’s let’s not care about that okay so first you have to come over here to This and since I use mine for you guys can do a c custom uh like you can make your own or something like that um you click allow Bedrock right here once that is blue click Start server I’ve already started mine and then you come back Over to Minecraft and then you click Play Click servers and then you’re going to see that there are none no extras right oh you see joined open server list join any of these ones that say it which I’m going to join meville because that’s probably my favorite but it’s not going To put me in meville um anyways if even if you do do this you can still play these featured servers all if you want to play these featured servers and you still want to be able to do this then you just load in and come down and click whichever one you want to Do but like so yeah you do this those then you click manage oh my bad um I clicked the wrong one so like if you get a one time invite like your friends like you’re you’re only I’m only letting you play this one time then oh wait hold on let me go back In if your friend’s like I’m going to let you played this one time then um then you should click what says hold on you should click what says connect to a server if your friend is like okay you can play on this server one time um if you want To keep like let’s say it’s your server and you want to keep it saved on here like for example these ones right here that I put on here you click manage server list add server and put in your IP um it doesn’t really matter which one It is then put in like a display name it doesn’t M again it doesn’t matter what it is it doesn’t have to match the IP um and then and then once you do that look for your display name that you put and like it should be right here and it should Have that exact icon I don’t think you can change it um click the name which in this case I’m going to do friend because that is the server that I’m hosting over here on mine Fort and right now our current version is 1.2.4 it says 1.2.2 don’t worry it still Works so just wait until it says start and restart so then you know that it’s actually online as it says right here and then once that is done you come back over to your switch or uh whatever console you are on and I put it as friend so you’re going to click It and then you just wait for it so yeah just wait for it to load um I may this part out if I forget to though then I’m sorry okay so you what would it just go through and keep an eye on your server because if it turns off or something Like if it’s been on for a long time and no one’s and no one’s joined it it eventually stops so you’ve got to make sure that it doesn’t stop like maybe have like maybe type in some commands or something um so yeah you wait for it to locate the Server Nickel nice a nickel a Niel and please don’t if you click cancel your going to have to click the server again and um if you click connect to server you’re going to have to type in the server address all over again if you click um manage server and you added the Server then you can just click your server just the way that I did you don’t have to do the DNS thing all over again so yeah you just wait for that and just wait for it to finish locating the server and if it takes like really long and it’s your Server like really super long then click Restart and it should and then you should have to uh and it automatically starts back up now my server just went off so because of that I’m going to have to restart again um sadly but don’t worry this method totally works it’s just it can be or it can take a little While because of because of it being because of it being Bedrock Edition but so if it takes real long and it just doesn’t work then try canceling and try rejoining and it should work this second time which is what I’m going to do so again I’m going to click that So yeah it should say connecting to external Server so you just wait for all of it to load and then again it should work now if this comes up right here just click okay and try rejoining and then I’m I don’t want to make this video too long so you guys can skip ahead if It takes too long or you may have already skipped ahead and you may not see this part um but really you just have to let it load and it should eventually work but if it doesn’t work like it has been hope you have good Wi-Fi because I don’t really have the best Wi-Fi for this so it’s not for me it’s not going to work every time but for you it’s probably going to be really good because my Wi-Fi is really bad but hey you got to be thankful for what you got be thankful for what you got But yeah connecting to external server is what it should say and if this continues to not do it from like a lot of times then go into it don’t uh leave the server list but start it and then wait until it’s Act online like okay well I’m sorry but today it’s Not going to work um I’ll make a part two of this video to see if it works tomorrow goodbye Video
